An improved blockchain framework for ORAP verification and data security in healthcare

Abstract

Currently, the move from traditional healthcare to smart healthcare systems is greatly aided by current technology. Healthcare proposes a new healthcare model that is patient-centered using advancements in wearable sensors, connectivity, and the Internet of Things (IoT). The administration of enormous amounts of data, including reports and pictures of every individual, increases human labour requirements and security hazards. This study shows how a blockchain-based Internet of Things might improve patient care while lowering costs by using medical resources more wisely. Initially, Resource Provider’s IoT data will be sensed and encrypts using Diffie Hellman Galois–Elliptic-curve cryptography (DHG-ECC). Next, from the extracted attributes, the optimal features will be selected by using Pearson Correlation Coefficient based Sand Cat Optimization Algorithm (PCC-SCOA). After that, the selected optimal features will be combined and converted into hashcode using the Digit Folding–Streebog Hashing algorithm. This hashcode will be constructed in the form of Smart Contract. Next, the Resource Requester (Doctor or Nurse) sends the Role Request with the Combined Linear Congruential Generator–Digital Signature Algorithm (CLCG-DSA). The next Resource Requester will be matching the hashed access policy with Blockchain. The proposed models are used to compare the performance of proposed design using feature selection time, Encryption time, Decryption time, security level, signature creation time and signature verification time. Our proposed method DHGECC approach achieves 96.123% higher security.
